DESIGN INDABA 2014 – MAKE THINK BECOME DID

A campaign created by Jupiter Drawing Room for Absa’s sponsorship of the Design Indaba, help inspire people to take their creative ideas further and make it a reality, in some cases help a few along the way by physically bringing their ideas to life.

“Make Think become did”, the Tagline used in Absa’s campaign, encourages delegates to inspire others by using an APP for tweeting their ideas at the conference. A hub of pre-selected illustrators guided by IDESO, turn each original idea submitted into a concept illustration. Using the APP to tweet their ideas, delegates earn design dollars. These design dollars are used to purchase the illustrations which are printed on a multitude of items found on Absa concept store.

After each Day, one illustration is selected by a panel of judges, this original Idea, is taken further and finalized into a tangible product by IDESO.
